Devin Walker, drummer for The Prototype, has one priority: turning his alt-soul band into the superstar act it's destined to become. Singularly focused on his music, his creative passion is all-consuming—that is, until he crosses paths with his best friend’s college roommate, Willow Harden.

Willow was drawn to Devin from the moment she first saw him. And when Devin does, finally look Willow's way, she's easily seduced from her protective bubble into the lure of his fast-paced ambitions, though at times, she wonders if she can handle it.

Unable to resist their potent chemistry, Devin and Willow free fall into a relationship that makes them question each other and doubt themselves. Devin knows he should probably leave her alone; Willow knows life for her might not be any good without him. Can they possibly make their love work? And if so, at what cost?

Aquemini!

ByBooks - are what I love!on August 16, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

First things first. If you haven't head the soundtrack... yup, I called it a soundtrack, stop what you're doing and go listen! The music gives so much more life and realism to the storyline.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way, on to Willow and Devin. I loved them! They have easily moved to the top as my favorite Prototype couple. Everything about this book was centered around finding, knowing and being secure with yourself. Willow suffered from a case of "I can do it all!" In doing it all for everyone except herself, she ended up lost. Willow was the domain owner and host of everything Devin related, and this left all things Willow related on the back burner. She knew him better than she knew herself and a relationship doesn't work when only one person is secure.

Devin was sooooo not what I expected. He loved him so Willow and he was good to Willow. Devin's perceived shortcomings were all related to his inability to give Willow a lifestyle that she was accustomed to and that he thought she deserved. Willow didn't care about any of that, she just wanted Devin..... and she got him!

This story was just full...... full of light, love, happiness, loss and life. You definitely should read it if you haven't.... oh, and listen to the playlist! :)

I feel like I've grown up with The Prototype

ByNakia Brownon August 16, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Keeping Willow remains true to all the feelings in Happiness in Jersey and Finding Kennedy. It was thrilling to finally explore the relationship between Devin and Willow. I could actually feel the pressure they were both under - both in the relationship and outside of it. While Jersey/Zay and Kennedy/Travis feel like old souls who had already been through a lot, Devin and Willow take on the dynamic of what happens when you fall in a deep, all consuming kind of love when you are young and still figuring yourself out. This story is real, when it is gut wrenching and when it is light. As always, Jacinta Howard has me smiling, heart racing and looking for good music.

Finally...

ByDst4Ton August 11, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I've been intrigued by this couple in more ways than one since the initial book of this series. I had many questions about Devin and Willow. Jacinta Howard answers them all in "Keeping Willow", which provides answers to all of the questions that I had for this Dynamic Couple. Being able to read their back story in complete detail provided understanding to how and where their relationship all began.

Now I'm fiending to read more on Bam and Cassie, 😂.

If for some strange reason you have not been privy to Jacinta Howard's work, stop ✋ denying yourself of some amazing writing from a very Gifted and Talented writer...

Jacinta Howard's Pen Game Can't Be Matched!!!!

BySarahon August 11, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Jacinta Howard has a gift. She has the immeasurable talent of creating stories that absolutely move you. 'Keeping Willow' is no different. Willow and Devin were beautifully crafted characters. I fell in love with them, with their story, with their deep bond. Their journey was anything but easy, but Howard imbued them with the passion and complexities that make her characters so distinct. Even when Devin was aggravating me (LOL!), I wanted so badly for them to work it all out. I love the way that Howard seamlessly integrates music, arts, and culture into her literary fiction. It adds vibrancy to the dialogue and the narration. Reading her work is such a vivid, lyrical journey. I was sooo happy to get caught up with all members of The Prototype and fangirled over the drop in from Trevor Carmichael! I hope that Cassie and Bam's story will be released sometime soon! I highly recommend this book, as well as the other books in the series and Jacinta Howard's other books!

Amazing

ByPlezurVon August 21, 2017

Format: Kindle Edition

Keeping Willow was an amazing read. I connected and related to Willow and Devin's story. Those two months were exactly what they needed to get their relationship on a more solid footing. I was happy for the success that Prototype experienced and that Willow found her own way and identity. Willow and Devin went through growing pain that anchored them to become much stronger. The story itself was executed and written very well, and the characters were strongly developed. By reading this book, you can tell how the characters matured and that is not always accomplished in books. I of course loved the music and dance aspects of the story. Music, especially good soul music, has a way to make you feel connected while bringing you calmness and peace to your life, well at least it does for me. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and gladly recommend.

Installment: Bodied

ByKindle Customeron August 26, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I can't even articulate how authentic this piece is. Devin and Willow had me so caught up it was ridiculous. I couldn't put this book down. The ups and downs of Devin and Willow's relationship was like a beautiful torture. I had to read the next chapter. I had to see if they would figure it out. This installment had me on a roller coaster of emotions. It is hands down the best book of the Prototype series. I mean how can Jacinta top this? (Specifically for this series)
Can we talk about her intrinsic ability to write intimacy??? Her love scenes are always good and what I like is she doesn't have to get vulgar to set every one of your senses on fire.
Jacinta's ability to close a chapter is so on point. How about that chapter one close though ? The story just flowed with an addictive pace. Wow. Just wow.
